HB 7005 — OGSR/Financial Disclosure
by Ethics, Elections & Open Government Subcommittee and Rep. Holcomb (SB 7012 by Ethics and Elections Committee)
This summary is provided for information only and does not represent the opinion of any Senator, Senate Officer, or Senate Office.
Prepared by: Ethics and Elections Committee (EE)
The bill saves from repeal current public records exemptions for:
All secure login credentials held by the Commission on Ethics for the purpose of allowing access to the electronic financial disclosure filing system; and
Information entered into the system for purposes of making the disclosure.
The exemptions are subject to the Open Government Sunset Review Act and stand repealed on October 2, 2024, unless reenacted by the Legislature. The bill saves the exemptions from repeal by deleting the scheduled repeal date, thereby maintaining the current exempt status of the information.
If approved by the Governor, or allowed to become law without the Governor’s signature, these provisions take effect October 1, 2024.
Vote: Senate 40-0; House 118-0
